THE 1955 STUDEBAKER PRESIDENT
The President was styled and built by Studebaker-Packard Corporation, who claimed to be the world's largest producer of sports cars. There were three basic models for 1955, the Champion, Commander, and the President. The President was the best and most expensive of the three models. The President was offered in five versions, with the two 2Dr Hardtop versions being the most desirable today.
The President nameplate returned to the Studebaker line in 1955, having been absent since 1942, and was discontinued again in 1958. The 1955 Studebaker Presidents were among the finest, most powerful, dependable and luxurious American cars that year. No expense was spared creating these wonderful automobiles.

Vehicle Condition:
THIS 1955 STUDEBAKER PRESIDENT IS IN BEAUTIFUL RESTORED CONDITION. THIS STUDEBAKER RUNS AND DRIVES WONDERFULLY!
The exterior has been restored and is nothing less than absolutely stunning!The paint is excellent! The chrome is excellent, but there is a slight indentation in the front bumper guard. The exterior trim pieces are excellent, but there are a few very minor indentations.The tires were purchased new in October, 2022.
The interior is all new, including carpet, seat covers, door panels, head liner, and hat rack, As should be expected, the electric clock is not running. The radio does work, but does make a crackling sound on weak stations. The headlight switch works but sometimes needs a bit of minor movement to turn on the lights. I do not believe that the fuel gauge is operating. The cardboard panels below dash have cracks, the horn is disconnected due to a contact issue in the steering column, and the neutral safety switch is not working. These are all minor things.
Note that the odometer reading listed above is not believed to be the total original miles.
THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THIS IS AN EXCEPTIONALLY NICELY RESTORED AND RARE 1955 STUDEBAKER PRESIDENT TWO-DOOR HARDTOP!
